--- Me llamo Mario Carballo Zama, vengo de la ciudad de México ---

I'm a developer & artist from Mexico who is traveling around the world getting inspiration for my next projects, trying all the local food that I can and meeting cool people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since I started traveling the best part has been getting to know amazing people all over the world, I intend to continue meeting people and having interesting conversations.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did a 6 million downloaded game about Cats stealing things called Kleptocats, a Humble Bundle featured game called Muertitos and I was part of the prestigious game accelerator program, Stugan in 2017.

Currently I'm traveling around the world, recording a Podcast about Game Development in Spanish, and working on a folding clothes game.
